Myriad are the progressives, liberals, leftists -- or for that matter, even conservatives -- who profess a belief in markets, dynamism, and entrepreneurship...except, well, except in the case of health care...and maybe energy...and, oh yeah, education...and, I guess, retirement savings...and I probably have to throw in automobiles...and I suppose markets just don't work for finance, insurance, air travel, telecom, or the Internet either. And definitely not general labor markets. No, no, no. All these things are subject to dramatic and chronic market failure and are too important to be left to people and markets. But other than that, have at it!</p>Bret SwansonMon, 24 Nov 2008 15:12:43 -0000
